John,

Just days ago we saw Vice President Kamala Harris sworn in — the first woman, the first Black American and the first South Asian American to blaze this trail in American history.

But what we saw earlier this week is just the beginning. After Democrats took back the White House in November, A’shanti announced a call to women to continue the work to repair our country.

“Now is not the time to get complacent about our political future. We, especially as women, must not take for granted that this win took years of hard work and that our efforts must continue beyond 2020. There is still so much at stake and our win at the top of the ticket shows what happens when we continually invest in the grassroots and empower people to create change.”

John, we’re asking, will you pledge to stay involved to make your community and our country a better place? Add your name here.

During the last year we saw Emerge alums and Democrats move the needle in the fight to make our government more representative.

But in order to build on what we’ve accomplished, the fight must continue.

The attacks on immigrant communities, reproductive rights, the environment, and LGBTQ+ protections will continue — and your participation is more important than ever in the push for progress.

If we come together, we can continue dismantling centuries of discrimination, take on Republican gerrymandering, and so much more.

But this work takes all of us. Will you pledge to stay in this fight to make our government more just and representative?

Thank you,

Danielle Noel Deputy Communications Director
